Description
One look at the Nuroad Hybrid C:62 Race and you know that this is a special bike. But the elegant, organic curves of its C:62 carbon frame are just part of the story, because at the heart of this gravel-devouring machine is Bosch's new, lightweight SX motor – around 800g lighter than the Bosch CX and with 55Nm of torque – and 400Wh battery. And, if that doesn't give you the range you're looking for, it's PowerMore-ready for an extra 250Wh of juice. Shimano's GRX 1x12 gears with matching GRX hydraulic disc brakes put you firmly in control, whilst a pair of Newmen Performance X.R.25 wheels shod with grippy Schwalbe 45mm tyres keep the rubber side down and moving forward, wherever you're headed. It's ready. Are you?
Form meets function in the elegant shape of the Nuroad Hybrid C:62's carbon frame. Sure, it's a great looker, with a clean profile and organic curves. But we haven't forgotten practicality, like incorporating clearance for tyres up to 50mm even with mudguards fitted. Or carrier mounting points at the rear and on the full carbon fork, for maximum bikepacking versatility. The Bosch drive system's control unit is incorporated into the top tube, with a mini handlebar remote, and the frame is PowerMore-ready for a +250Wh battery booster pack. The seat clamp is hidden, there's a direct mount lightweight chain guide, a flat mount kickstand interface, Boost rear end and UDH derailleur hanger. We reckon we've ticked all the boxes. Over to you...
